Christmas Card Fun

Hello Fellow Crafters,

Christmas is coming around the corner two Thursday's away and each year as I have gotten more into my paper crafting. I love giving family and friends cards I make from the heart especially for them.

Today I am going to share 4 cards to tickle your creativity sending you a friendly reminder that you still have time for December's Monthly Challenge over at My Besties 3D and more Challenge Blog. I made using a Printable/digital My Besties 8 page  6x6 "Dear Santa" kit. It came with so many fun elements to play with I couldn't help but have fun as I listened to Christmas music. I have learned to really love these digital printable Design Papers. You order them and get right away. You can also have fun altering the size or crop what you want.

Fun with Little Sweeties CD Elements by My Besties

Hello Fellow Crafters,

Today I want to share with you a couple projects I made using some fun elements you get in the My Besties CD's - Little Sweetie.  There are over a hundred different elements, papers, digital images, colored images, card toppers and more and I am just sharing a few of them.  You can see the variety of different CD's available HERE in My Besties Shop.     
                                 
Here are a couple of projects I had fun putting together. I chose to use a lot of the elements and try my fun with Pocket Letters. I use Microsoft Word to crop some of the elements to cut out with my scissors as added embellishments for my Pocket Letters. I also typed some sentiments on some of the Card Toppers making them into Pocket Letter size. An added embellishment to my Pocket Letter holder I added strips of the Lace Heart frame die which you can now also get on SVG file-Heart Frame.

I used one of the box templates that I cut out with scissors and fancied up the edges with a handpunch border. With a card topper and adorable blouse element made into tags. There are several pretty box templates with beautiful designs. I chose this one.
I hope you enjoyed your visit and I tickled your creativity with this fun filled My Besties CD. I own several and they are so much fun.  Don't forget you can visit The My Besties Shop and check out all the fun products.

Until next time...Happy Crafting and bountiful blessings of health and happiness to you and yours.

I invite you to visit the new My Besties Shop  or Sherri Baldy's Etsy Store to see what all Sherri Baldy Designs has.

As you see my little sneak peek up above I chose to go with using a My Besties precolored Printable sheet called fairy Oct36 as a 3D Decoupage project. I use Microsoft Word to make my adjustments in reference to the size I want her to be on my project. She is so adorably pre-colored that all I had to do was cut her out  in different portions with my scissors and put her together with pop stickers. I added some sparkle with some Stickles Diamond.
